So last week I remembered hearing that having spider plants is "good for you" but I couldn't recall why. So I started searching the web to find good answer but quickly gave up as all of the resources seemed questionable and not super clear.
And then my weekly Real Age tip popped into my email box and there is was. An article about plants that clean up indoor air. Pretty crazy, right?
So I have confirmed that spider plants are in fact "good for you". They get rid of harmfull compounds in household air. I also discovered that philodendrons and ivy do the same thing. While I have no idea what a philodendron is, I am sure going to get some for my place.
The next challenge will be keeping them alive, anyone have a tip for how to keep plants alive w/o having to actually take care of them? :)
